Kylee Watson had a spectacular high school career with Mainland Regional High School in Linwood, New Jersey, where she finished as the team’s all-time leading scorer for both men and women.
In her senior year with the Mustangs, she averaged 16.9 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game.
Kylee Watson’s brilliance on the court was soon recognized by Team USA, as she represented the country in the 2017 FIBA Americas U16 Championship and won a gold medal.
While her game might not be considered flashy by any means, Kylee Watson is best described as a strong and versatile forward. The 20-year-old is also an excellent defender, and one of the country's best rebounders and scorers around the basket.
